010 [video] Fourth wall event!

[miniworth]

---Gotcha.

[So what's Edgeworth up to today? Well... he was catching Butch and Tadpole, who thought it would be a wonderful way to exercise if they stole Edgeworth's Pokégear and run all over Violet. And that's how they spent the day today! Pess, being a good girl, is off visiting Phoenix at the Pokémon Center.

And Edgeworth had just caught up to the two Pokémon. But wait. This isn't Violet anymore. The moment the Gear stops shaking like crazy, the camera manages to focus on..... the inside of an elevator?

Unfortunately, Edgeworth doesn't notice until the doors close behind him.]

......Huh?

....W-where am I...?

[Panic settling in three, two, one.....]

Oh god... [And the feed cuts off as Edgeworth drops his gear, suddenly feeling sick to his stomach.]

[[ooc; FFFFF I hate writer's block, especially those that hit at the best moments. =u= ;; But anyway, a shorter, less depressfail version of Edgeworth's fourth wall event, that I definitely like better. Action posts to people in the department store, on the fourth floor, which is where Edgeworth will THROW HIMSELF OUT OF THE ELEVATOR BECAUSE OH GOD TRAUMA, and video/audio/text responses will come about an hour later, once the kid calms down and feels better! c: Responses will be slow-- I'll probably be busy both Saturday and Sunday until the evening. =w= ;;

Butch used with permission from Phoenix Wright mun cheapblusuits! I think Phoenix is in possession of Pess and her egg for this weekend, as well. ]]

Comments

...true.

[miniworth]

[WELL THIS IS MILES' POST and here's Phoenix's. 8D ;; ]

I'm sorry.

If... if I pull through with what I plan to do, you... probably won't exist anymore.

[WELL I know streets named "Wright Avenue" and "Phoenix Drive" too, so... |D ;; ]

And Manfred shared his ATM number, which was 0001. XDDDD

[AHHHHH SOB STOP BREAKING MY HEART, YOU GUYS. I even played one of the sad songs from the Code Geass soundtrack when I opened this tag. It was Innocent Days. T__________T

/...FLIPS A TABLE SADLY if that is possible]

...If I am truly your...future self, then I will exist no matter what path you choose to take. Of course, I will most certainly become a different person if you manage to return home with this knowledge in your hands.

["Maya" is also the Filipino word for "sparrow". XD And "maya-maya" is a type of fish, I think.]

....Was there a pun behind it? xD (In Japanese it was 4649)

[miniworth]

[I-I'M SORRY BUT THIS IS MILES AND PHOENIX IT'S KIND OF OBLIGATORY

and yes it's probably possible.]

......And.. how do you feel, about that? [The tiny child steps towards his older self, reaching up, as if trying to grasp at this "future" that stood before him.

Was he... seeking comfort?

From himself?

He would never be sure.]

[ff I see.. xD Oh Ace Attorney and its puns.]

It's just 0001 because he's number one. XD What IS the pun behind yon-roku-yon-kyuu? Or is it shi?

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[I KNOWWWW but still. An Edgeworth at my other game might post something later on...I should watch out for it.]

Right now, I find myself wondering what would have happened had those events taken a different turn.

...

[He's thinking about this. Very much.] While it is possible to change even after the years I spent under von Karma's tutelage, as I have proven, I see nothing detrimental with taking a different path, assuming you remember everything you learned from our father...and the truth.

[/random trivia orz. And at the law school at my university, there was once a banner congratulating a lawyer (or at least, a law student) named Phoenix. XD

AAAAAH YOUR ICON SO CUTE D'AWWWWW is that Miles and Miles.]

"4649" can be read as "yo-ro-shi-ku" or "Nice to meet you" xD

[miniworth]

[It's always a good time to watch out for EMO POSTS AWWYEAH]

.....I won't let Mr. von Karma's twisted cruelty change me more than it already has. [He simply couldn't... bring himself to accept the future as it was. Just for that revenge, to allow Manfred von Karma to murder another person.. just to watch, powerlessly, as another life was lost because of him...? He couldn't do that.]

[lololol xD That sounds pretty amazing. My high school VP is named Mrs. Edwards-Wright, and Nick kept saying "Edgeworth-Wright" >___>

AND YES IT IS MILES AND MILES ;A; I-I found it on pixiv and I just had to use it fhdsakjfh ]

AHAHA I didn't see that coming. Oh, Manfred. /has a classmate named Manfred

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[Mine won't be up till like, February. XD I better start preparing as early as now, ahahaha.]

...I'm glad to hear that. [He really is.] But I believe that he may try a different scheme to exact his revenge on us.

...

Do not fall for the traps he will create.

[AAAAAAH and I found the pic. =D And I still have...ICON SPACE. /sometimes wastes icon space on crack icons that probably won't even be used ICly. BUT THIS ISN'T CRACK, IT'S CUTE AND...sob.]

AHAHA that sounds amazing. xD

[miniworth]

[M-mine took me three rewrites SO YES START PLANNING NOOOOWWWW]

.......Even if I know the truth, that doesn't mean I'll stop hating.. criminals.

I won't forget what he did. I won't let him deceive me.

[ICON SPACE IS DELICIOUS-- i mean. Y-you know that blue comic strip about Miles/Manfred/Bratziska? ;-;

I WANT TO CANON UPDATE JUST TO USE MORE OF THAT COMIC FOR ICONS hfksajhfdksjf]

I had to stifle a giggle when his name was called for the first time.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[OMG YES I SHOULD now this is me flailing.]

Don't let your hatred consume you as it did me. [They did say he hated crime with an almost abnormal passion.] Everyone, including criminals, has the right to a fair trial.

[OH YES a friend of mine showed me that comic and I melted. I remember seeing a bunch of icons but...I can't have too many icons 'cause I play Bigworth.]

I can imagine. xD also ignore the fact that this icon's Edgey is TOO OLD

[miniworth]

[I am watching you flail. xD]

.....I'll do my best to keep the promise. [Because. Canon update. When he finds out that the man who killed his father is a father himself he's going to be in shock, disbelief, and start wondering if he would ge able to do essentially the same thing to Franziska that Manfred did to him.]

[ There were about 30 on prosecutingly, and I've been making a whole bunch of them on my own. ;-; ]

By what, about a decade? XDDD

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[...did you flail like this too before your DL-6 post.]

Very well. Every piece of evidence must be examined, and every witness must be given the opportunity to testify. [OH MAN that's like dropping a bombshell on him. Another one.

Yup, that's where I found 'em. Eeeeeeee icons. Speaking of icons...yup, still very slowly filling up my space and cherishing it while I have it~]

... o___+ Eight, I think. xD

[miniworth]

[....That I did. And then I sulked off to play Professor Layton, flailed more, then keyboard smashed. BUT THEN NICK WROTE HERS ON THE FLY and I sulked some more.]

....I know that.

That's what Father said all the time. [And one thing that Bigworth might remember, if he paid closed attention to his younger self's speech, was the use of the word "father." He used to say "dad" before...

Tinyworth, despite knowing the truth, would never forgive himself for not being able to save Gregory. From the attacking Yanni Yogi or from the bullet that killed his father. If only he'd been conscious then...

Until he can forgive himself, or feel like he deserved to name himself truly Gregory Edgeworth's son, he might never get over the reluctance to refer to Gregory as "dad"... /headcanon woop!]

[IT WILL BE GLORIOUS. I mean. He'll make a post all confused like. "....Say somebody wronged you, and you promised yourself and everyone that you'll see to it that justice is served. What if... you find out that the consequences of that is putting another person in the exact same position as you?" =u=b ;; ]

[Icon space is so nice to have! ;A; ]

Close to a decade...and closer to the Bratworth years.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[OH MAN ON THE FLY. Gah.]

Yes...they were constant reminders. [He's glad to hear that you haven't forgotten them.]

[Actually, yes. Bigworth has always called Greg "Father" himself. LOL YES HEADCANON IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING - almost. Although according to mine, Miles has always preferred calling him "Father". He used to call him "Dad" when he was younger, but then kinda shifted to "Father" with a few slips back into "Dad" territory.

But awwwww Tinyworth. I still say he deserves a hug /logic fail

I'm still ramping up my icon count but it's hard for me since I tend to stay away from NSFW posts. Instead, I should go see what my fellow Edgeworths have got in their icon space~]

Well, the icon is of Bratworth and Bratziska, so...

[miniworth]

[ON THE FLY. I WAS LIKE. "NOT FAIR."]

I don't think I'd have forgotten something you remember.. I won't ever forget what Father said.

[Personally, I never really liked the way English made him say "Dad" :|a In the Japanese.. he was always referring to Gregory as otou-san which would have suited Miles better if it translated to "Father".. ah, well. I will never understand why they made Edgeworth say "my old man" at one point in that case though.]

[Tinyworth is always in need of a hug. ;-; /what is logic

Aah... I don't even go on comms anymore since I think I made them cough up all their Tinyworth icons that would work... =w= ;; ]

I kinda want one of those but maybe I should start conserving space...

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[A small chuckle. His little self is more sensible than some people Bigworth's age.] I see your point. But I did forget, if you recall...for a while.

[I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT EITHER REALLY And I was also kinda derailed when he referred to Gregory as "dad".

Logic is a kind of cereal - and this is my Bigworth muse giving me a well-earned glare.

OH AND HAPPY NEW YEAR =D]

....well, if you ever feel like it feel free to. |D /has made a whole bunch

[miniworth]

....I don't recall it. I did.. lose faith in the things he taught me, but I haven't forgotten. [But now he has a feeling that he'll have to do his best not to forget, because of von Karma.]

[IT'S ONE OF MY UNSOLVED MYSTERIES Edgeworth's vocabulary really just isn't the "dad" kind, y'know? ;;

Logic is for cereal srs bznz /but Bigworth muses glare all the time.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU TOO BB :D]

...sob LOL THANKS

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

I mean, I forgot when I began learning prosecution under von Karma. [Yet another nod of approval; Littleworth, you've got some support.]

...

Is there anything else...you wish to know about me?

[INORITE. So I'm sticking to "Father". FOREVERRRRRR. Phoenix and Larry might call their dads "Dad" but not Edgey-boy.

ACTUALLY THEY DO especially when their muns procrastinate and then torture them.>_>

/dumps confetti all over this thread...PINK CONFETTI.]

IT IS MY PLEASURE, BB

[miniworth]

.... Is that so. [He's not sure what to think about this buuuuuut then again, this Bigworth here didn't know the truth.

But there were a few things he wanted to know.]

.....Why cravats?

[FATHER FOREVER I AGREE *A*

B-but they're so fun to do that to... >____> ;;

/JUMPS MAGENTA CONFETTI :DDD ]

THE ICON WITH BIGWORTH AND LITTLEWORTH I promise to credit youuuu

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[Alas, if only Bigworth knew more about this particular version of himself. Then again, he has repressed quite a few memories of his childhood, especially THOSE memories that Phoenix kicked up to the surface.

And now I'm going to summon the almighty powers of HEADCANON! Sobbbbb.]

von Karma [No more "sir" or "Mr. von Karma" here anymore...like that time in 1-4 when he went VON KARMA IT WAS YOUUUUU] was also...partial to the cravat. It was a habit I picked up while I lived with him.

In time, I too became...rather fond of wearing them.

[My Larry headcanon (yes I play Larry too XD) says that he's the dad type. He'd also be more inclined to say OLD MAN.

...actually. I have plans to somehow force Bigworth into the big Death City party. XDDDDDD]

A-ALL RIGHT. ;;

[miniworth]

[ Tinyworth isn't a stranger to repressed memories, either. After moving away from their little neighborhood after DL-6, he's tried to forget the days he spent with Phoenix and Larry.. many, many times.

The child is currently staring at the cravat with a look of.... "I don't get it" ]

....I don't even--

[That makes sense. xD I think Phoenix and Larry are definitely more suited for the dad/old man type. :>

.....Mia might just loiter around. |D ;; ]

I will take it and it will give me fluffy happy dreams forever.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[Unfortunately, Bigworth is a stranger to a lot of things Littleworth has been through in this world.

Now have a rather clueless expression from your older self.]

...I-is something the matter?

[Guys might pull you onto the dance floor, Mia~]

Yes. ;-;

[miniworth]

[....If only they met later, Miles would have been through A LOT MORE thanks to his new bff Ken Amada.]

I... don't know. it looks kind of weird....

[THEY SHOULD STOP THIS SRS TALK AND GO HAVE SOME FUN BONDING TIMES? /go buy him a cravat bigworth]

[for her boobs? 8D]

I CAN SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT - wat

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[THANKS A LOT TINYWORTH Bigworth is now a little...caught off-guard by that remark AKA you embarrassed him, sob. Although to be honest, he rather misses wearing that bow tie.]

I-it's...a fashion statement.

[I APPROVE. I've been waiting for the fun bonding times. =3 OH HE WILL. If you buy him a new bow tie, Littleworth.]

T-that picture makes me the happiest ever ;;

[miniworth]

[YOU'RE WELCOME BIGWORTH d-don't worry it won't be long until the kid's had experience wearing that thing too and realizes HEY IT'S KINDA COMFY but in the meanwhile--]

Well, if that's a fashion statement, I don't want to know what century you learned it from. [Reaching out and grabbing your hand Bigworth (isn't this kind of awkward) and starting to pull you!]

Come on-- remember? That one bowtie Father bought us when we turned eight... let's see if we can find something similar.

[Does he look happy? WHY YES HE DOES omg someone he can talk happy memories about his father with fhsajf]

Re: T-that picture makes me the happiest ever ;;

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[But it is comfy. ^_^ YOU SHOULD TRY ONE. A-anyway, I must credit you for your icon...what is your LJ name again, sob.]

I - [Yes, it's awkward, but he'll let you pull him along since, well, he can't turn down a request from himself, right? And he'll take a short trip down memory lane...skirting the not-so-nice memories of his childhood, of course...]

Yes...I recall that it was in our favorite shade of blue.

[SUCH A HAPPY LITTLE BOY and the happiness is slowly creeping onto Bigworth as well. That sounded...wrong.]

\o\

[miniworth]

[I WANT TO TRYONE SO BAD. My personal LJ is nijyuushi! :Db ]

...It was the blue that he always wore on his tie. [And he's glad you remember, Bigworth. He almost (actually, he does) grasps your hand tighter and begins to walk more enthusiastically. Awkward about being with his older self? Not really, not anymore!

To him, being used to these time paradoxes now - he'd taken it in stride since the beginning anyway - meeting this older self was... kind of like finding a long lost older brother. He's not going to think about the strangeness of the situation. He just smiles.]
